The tournament was hampered throughout the week by heavy rain and thick fog, both of which forced suspensions in play and the tournament being reduced to 54 holes.

Hugo was the leading South African, followed by Richard Sterne in a share of 39th, Jaco van Zyl in a share of 49th. Justin Walters and soon-to-be European Tour rookie Dylan Frittelli were part of a tie for 57th place, while Trevor Fisher Jnr was tied for 63rd.
